suddenly, will leans down and kisses brooklyn, his arms remaining at his sides. it was just for a moment they kissed.
"eugh, will! i just told you i think im-" she is interrupted.
again.
"did you feel anything?"
"what?"
"i mean, did you feel anything?"
"...no," brooklyn answers truthfully.
he lets out a sigh of relief. "me neither."
"so that means we're gay," will purses his lips. "i dont think thats how being gay works," brooklyn says quietly.
"wait, so, why'd you tell me you think your gay?" brooklyn asked, realizing.
"your the only girl in the group that'd kiss me. elevens dating mike and max likes devin." will explained shortly.
"wait- max- max likes devin?" brooklyn repeats- her expression suddenly saddening. "i hope she wont be mad at me for telling you," will grimaces, rubbing the back of his neck, but brooklyn isnt really listening now.
"we've been gone for too long. its probably getting suspicious. lets go," will ignores her and takes her hand, walking off and dragging her along.
"jesus, you two took so long. what were you doing?" dustin asked, adjusting his red and blue hat.
"probably making out," max mutters underneath her breath, giving will a death look- who was oblivious.
the rest of the day went by quickly, brooklyn getting a detention because she 'copied off' of another student, when it was the other way around.
so she was late to av club. infact, she missed the whole thing.
she hadnt missed much, though. max remained silent the entire time- glaring at will. the others left and the second it was just will and max she snapped.
"what the fuck, will?!" she stood up. it was so sudden will was almost taken aback.
"whuh- what?!"
though it was over, brooklyn still went to the av club- hoping maybe they were still there. she was suprised to hear muffled yelling, coming from two voices she recgonized. max and will.
"i told you i liked her! just fucking- just yesterday!"
"im- im confused, what are you talking about?" he says, and he generally is confused.
"you- you kissed brooklyn!"
the realization hits will and his expression suddenly changes.
"max, i-"
"you knew i liked her! and you still- you still kissed her!" max throws her arms up in the air and lets them fall back to her sides.
"its not my fault! i thought you were talking about devin!"
"devin? the devin ive hated since the 7th grade?" max doesnt get a response to this.
"this is ridiculous," max says under her breath, leaving the room. "your ridiculous," will replies, but- thankfully, she didnt hear him.
max storms out, leaving through the back of the school- going to smoke. will goes soon after her- leaving out from the front of the school.
